[QUOTE="unlokia, post: 379514, member: 23955"] I don't see why all the beating about the bush - in all the time you have been following this thread, you could have been teaching OS X instead!. What a complete waste of time this seems to be. I find, that if someone needs to learn something enough, then they _will_ do so!. If he can find his way around the cobbled-together mess of a patchwork GUI, that is XP, then the sheer simplicity and delight of a Macintosh, is going to be a walk in the preverbial park to him. Just get rid of the PeeCee, and get the Macintosh installed ASAP, otherwise you are wasting MORE time. I wish you both, all the best. @ unhappyending - saving for a Mac Mini hey?. Wise purchase decision!. I recently purchased the 1.66Ghz CD model, and proceeded to open it up and install 2Gb of Crucial DDR2 667. Runs like a dream, so go for it. Crucial ram is DIRT cheap right now!!. Crucial DDR2 PC2-5300, 667Mhz ram (2x 1Gb sticks): [url]http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=Mac+mini+%28Intel+Core+Duo+%2D+1%2E66GHz%29[/url] £70.49 currently, which **INCLUDES** VAT _and_ free shipping!!.
